What utter bullshit. You can't even get the type of plane right. It was a B-25, not a B-24. But more saliently, the two planes are not comparable. The commercial flights held almost 17,000 gallons of jet fuel and were fueled to capacity in preparation for cross country flights, the B-25 was coming in to land and had already burned most of its fuel. 767's have a wing span nearly 100 feet wider than a B-25 and 100 feet longer. They're big enough to carry more than 10 times the number of passengers and their top speeds are double that of a B-25. Even worse for your delusions is that B-25 was traveling at landing speed as it unintentionally flew into the Empire State Building; compared to the 2 767's on 9.11, which were flown at top speeds intentionally to inflict as much damage as possible -- even tilting upon impact to strike as many floors as possible.That was different, as the fire was brought under control in 40 minutes. And go ahead and link us to some of those "many" other times. 5 links will do, thanks.It has been survived many different skyscrapers, MANY times, including a B-24 that hit the Empire State building.
That is not different at all.
A massive B-24 bomber has about the same speed, weight, energy, and fuel of a modern passenger plane.
They both travel about 250 mph.
And it does not matter.
The building codes clearly state all skyscrapers MUST easily be able to withstand a plane impact, because it is INEVITABLE!
There is absolutely no way any rational person could build a building that tall and expect it to not eventually get hit by a plane.
Since this already happened to the Empire State building, in 1945, they already were warned.
And they already claimed it was NO PROBLEM.
And as far as fires, many skyscrapers survived far worse.

You trufers are absolutely fucking nuts.![]()
The point is that after the 1945 crash, all buildings were required to be able to withstand a plane impact.
There is no reason at all to suspect that would be at all difficult.
And the 767 would have been flying about the same speed.
You can not achieve high speed with a 767 in dense low altitude atmosphere.
And they would not have been trying for maximum speed because the most important thing would have been to hit the target.
And these were supposed to be student pilots who had only gone up once or twice.
And you have no reading comprehension at all.
I clearly states several times that I do not believe the WTC tower collapses were fake.
It is just that it is not hard to sympathize with those considering conspiracies because the building were NOT supposed to be able to collapse.
The single most significant reason why they did collapse was likely the damage to the sprinkler system.
Second was the thermal insulation on the beams was damaged or improperly applied in the first place.
